C64 Emulator - FrodoDS

[GPF]

This new version now only list the .d64/.D64 files in the /rd directory(limit them to less then 15 or they will scroll of the screen)

1541 drive emulation is turned off for a lot speedier load times.

As you can see in the above image the screen colors are finally correct

Sound is now recognisable for most things.

Left shoulder button will now load a snapshot image created with the pc version of Frodo 4.1b, name the snapshot jjr.fss and put it in the /rd folder on the root of the cf/sd card.

I've just tested this new version with a couple of games.

What can I say? I'm just speechless and amazed by this emulator. Rambo seems to be fully playable. The music is now clearly recognizable. Too bad I can't vote twice for the Neoflash compo

This new version uses the romfs appended to the end of the .nds or .ds.gba file so should work for most everything but the gbamp, with a little more work to generate the romdisk and append it.

You need a copy of genromfs.exe , you can download from here
http://www.feetoffury.com/files/genromfs-cygwin.zip rename it to genromfs.exe or update the included createromdisk.bat file.

Also might need the cygwin1.dll file from here http://www.dll-files.com/dllindex/pop.php?cygwin1

Download the gbfs distrubution from http://www.pineight.com/gba/ and take the padbin.exe and put that in the folder as well.

put the files into the same folder, then copy all of your .d64 files (also jjr.fss snapshot if you create one) into the rd directory and run the included createromdisk.bat

it should generate an FrodoDS_fs.nds and FrodoDS_fs.ds.gba .

This has all the fixes as the FAT lib version 0.3, but is not needed unless the FAT version from above message is not working

GPF can you suggest me any homebrew program that i can test ... to help you to fix the emu for the supercard cf?

[GPF]

its been reported that my first FAT version i released works on Supercard CF and also the romdisk version 0.3 works on supercard cf.

Another developer who updated FAT version also has problem with supercard cf, so hopefully it will be resolved soon, in the meantime you can use the romdisk version 0.3.

GPF i did the process you told to metaluna some msg above
i mean .. i got all the files and i launched createromdisk.bat ...then i renamed the 2 generated files FrodoDS_fs.ds.gba and FrodoDS.ds.gba with the .nds in the end ..and i got something in the lower screen of the ds (before was always black) ...this is the msg :

not found fs_romdisk: mounting image at 0x0 at /rd

the rd file is in the root and inside i put this file HNCHBACK.D64

tnx for your patience i'm a newbie in DS homebrew so if i've to do something different from the process i did try to be as clear as you can lol :P

[GPF]

you dont need the rd folder or .d64 files on your cf card with the romdiskfs version.

check and see if the romdisk.img file is being created after you run the bat file, if not that is why the problem.

open up a command window(dos window) and run the createromdisk.bat file from the command line, so that you can see the output and let me know if you are getting error messages.

the rd folder is where the bat file is and put your d64 files in that folder, basically the genromfs.exe creates a zip like file of the d64 files and appends them to the end of the .ds.gba file so that they are read from there.

AHAHAH it workedddddd :P i had to rename the .gba file with the nds in the end ehhe )) superrrrrrr tnx so if i want to play another games i've to create each time a frodo_ds file related to the game i want to play? or there is a way to load other d64 roms? i tried to put another d64 in the rd dir on the cf card but the emulator just finds the game i used to create it.
